Leadership Breakfast: Frank Patterson, Trilith Studios

Just south of Atlanta is Trilith – the future of film-making and content producing, where some of the world’s best talent lives and works side by side.  Trilith staged its first film production (Marvel’s Ant-Man) in 2015.  Ten years later, Trilith spreads across 1000 acres, with 35 studios, 400 acres of unique backlots, ground-breaking creative technology and over 40 production vendors, and with nearly 50 motion picture and television series credits to its name.  It is the largest purpose-built studio in America.

But that’s not all.  It’s also a planned community and home for its talent and constituents, with homes, parks, schools and a burgeoning array of restaurants, retailers and entertainment options.

Frank Patterson has been the President and CEO of Trilith since shortly after its inception.  He is also Professor and Dean Emeritus of Florida State University’s acclaimed College of Motion Picture Arts, as well as a seasoned and savvy entrepreneur, producer, film-maker and major presence in the entertainment industry.
